Here is a new video of a strange, unidentified fish caught off Burgeo, Newfoundland ~ dated July 30, 2008:

Appears to be some kind of deep sea species, such as the anglerfish.

Humpback anglerfish (Melanocetus johnsonii)

Krøyer’s deep sea angler fish (Ceratias holboelli), two images above.

But actually, I think it may be a fish that is often mistaken for Ceratias holboelli.

Triplewart seadevil (Cryptopsaras couesii) – Pêcheur à trèfle, found frequently in the delta of the St. Lawrence Seaway, not far from Burgeo.

About Loren ColemanLoren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013.

Wow, what an interesting creature. I believe Mr.Coleman has got the ID correct with the Triplewart Seadevil. Great name, and quite suitable I think. This appears to be the only species in the genus Cryptopsaras; and again, a very suitably named genus to be discussing here on Cryptomundo. I’m curious to know the meaning of “psaras” in the context of this name.
